I am a fifth year PhD student based at CERN working in the High Energy
Particle Physics program at Rutgers University. I joined the
collaboration in the summer of 2010 and began working in analysis of
multi-lepton final states. Primarily, focusing on a search for
pair-production of heavy fourth-generation bottom-like quarks where the
bottom-like quarks go to a b quark and a Higgs Boson. In the analysis
multi-lepton events are categorized into several exclusive search
channels based on jet flavor, lepton multiplicity, particle
identification and various kinematics properties in the events. The
Search channels are ordered by the amount of expected Standard Model
background. Emphasis is put on data-driven estimation of the SM
backgrounds also simulation is used for some backgrounds estimation. We
derived exclusion limits as a function of b’ mass as well as the
branching ratios. Programing languages I work with and familiar with are
C++, ROOT, Python, Java, Shell, Perl, and Java Script. |
